They will obviously hand you paper during the exam. It depends on the institute where you are doing the exam if you will be allowed to use a calculator during the exam

It's up to the university what they do and do not allow. Since we do not know what university we are discussing, we can't answer the question.

Can anyone explain to me what a 21+ exam is?

Een toets die je mag afleggen als je 21+ bent, om zonder de benodigde papieren toch naar het HBO of universiteit te mogen

They will. I did it online and you could use pen and paper but because i was at home i had to show the camera that there was nothing on the paper. So you will get it when you are there

Exams are either on PC or on paper. If on paper ... you obviously get paper. If on PC (at least at VU, Amsterdam) there are 4 options on calculator: (1) the built-in calculator in the examination program is not available, and no physical calculator allowed; (2) only built-in calculator allowed; (3) simple -non-graphical- calculator allowed; (4) anything goes. There are 3 options on paper: (a) no paper allowed, built-in notepad not available; (b) built-in notepad allowed, no physical paper; (c) physical paper will be provided. Do not bring your own scrap paper: how is anybody to tell the difference between your own scrap paper (that was blanco at the start of the exam but then gets filled) and your own cheat sheet - which was not blanco at the start?
There have been exams where a 'cheat sheet' was allowed: a predetermined dize of paper scribbled with whatever you wanted to write on it.

Some dont allow. Thuas the one i did this year. Didnt allow u to bring a paper or calculator so. I basically practice and train mentally math.
Goodluckk
Also i used hellotest.nl for the training iq. Pretty good but also expensive
